Look in:

This unit replaced the optically-read, mechanical compass sensor we
used with this radar on the last boat, an Endeavour 35 sloop. The old
sensor works great, as compasses go. It was mounted in the cabin near
centerline and was totally protected by a custom-made mahogany box so
noone could bump it.

If anyone needs the compass sensor, let me know in reply to this post
and I'll connect you to its owner who no longer needs it. It's in the
same new condition it was the day I mounted it in the protective
box....perfect. It's fully self-calibrating and puts out NMEA data,
directly. It was the NMEA model, not Seatalk, so it would work with
any system needing compass data..... I've forgotten the model number
but it's the compass unit that's black, with a SeaTalk-looking
connector on it where a round bottom compass is suspended under a
square plastic mounting that bolts to a vertical bulkhead.
